Japanese Language Class Party, Self-Serving Sushi Recipe

Hiroko used to teach Japanese language 15 or 16 years ago for 2nd Generation of Japanese American. The class members have been met once or twice a year after the class was closed. What are those who are average 78 or 79 years old talking? Yes, we were also talking and sharing how to keep up good health. Many good tips about health were shared. At the end of this sharing everyone agreed that the exercise is the most important matter to keep up good health. Everyone are doing the good exercise: walking, line-dancing, bicycling, taichi, slow and muscle exercise, etc. It is amazing that no one spend any money for exercise. Some are attending at the Sr. Citizen Center.
　

Here is some photo of those members.
9 members were attending this luncheon party at this busy holiday season. It is sad to remember those five people who had passed away among us. Everyone remembered and talked about those five people for a moment. Some didn’t come because he has lost hearing and he didn’t want to make himself suffer to say wrong things. We were all shocked to hear that and realize our age. But everyone laughed and said that we all can’t hear well, forgetting things, can’t move well, but we like to live our life fully We’ll ask him to come next time..

These class members are all Christian, but belong to different denominations churches; Catholic, Methodist, Congregation, Presbyterian, and Independent, but having such a wonderful time loving each other as Christ commands us.

God Father loves human being and sent His Son, Jesus Christ to die on the cross to save each one of us from sin. Whosoever believes His love and Jesus Christ, will be saved. This is the way Jesus showed us the true love. With this true love if we love one another there will be peace and joy among the gathering.
